Frame structure is constructed from robust stainless steel to provide many years of solid structural support.
Hardware Trim:
- Constructed from solid stainless steel with rounded corners.
- No sharp edges or points.
Sound Dampening Pads:
- New sound and vibration absorbing technology which comes standard on all Shor-Line kennels.
Kennel Door:
- One piece frame and wrap around hinge/latch bars are formed from 9.5 mm diameter solid stainless steel rods.
- All additional horizontal rods are 6 mm in diameter and all vertical rods are 4.8 mm in diameter.
- Every intersection of horizontal and vertical rods are welded, which provides incredible strength.
Fully Rounded Corners and Fluid Retaining Lip:
- No 90° corners to trap germs and debris.
- Smooth rounded cove transitions the back and walls of the kennel.
- Slightly raised, fluid retaining lip prevents drainage out of the front of the kennel.
Patented Latch:
- The latch is designed to be durable, secure and quiet.
- Acetyl bushings provide smooth operation and sound dampening qualities.
- The concave latch bar design enables the kennel door to be opened with the forearm when handling sedated or awkward animals.
Hinge Construction:
- 14 gauge stainless steel construction that is encapsulated by an injection moulded, fibreglass reinforced thermoplastic polymer.
- This design allows for quick and easy removal of the door for cleaning and reattachment without tools.
- Doors, latches and hinges are completely transposable, which allows kennels to be modified from a right latch to a left hand latch and vice versa.
